I think, if I were making the #1 overall pick, I would have taken Stroud. The health risks were too great with Young and Richardson just looked like a less-refined Justin Fields. Really, Richardson is enticing but only makes sense for one coach in the NFL: Shane Steichen.
If you put him with most other coaches, he becomes Justin Fields. But Steichen has the golden touch with these kinds of QBs and he's absolutely crushing it with Richardson, who to my mind looked like a guy who'd have to completely re-learn the position.
Shows you what I know.
